2012-07-31ARM: omap: remove mmc platform data dma_mask and initializationRussell King
DMAengine uses the DMA engine device structure when mapping/unmapping memory for DMA, so the MMC devices do not need their DMA masks initialized (this reflects hardware: the MMC device is not the device doing DMA.)

2012-07-31ARM: 7479/1: mm: avoid NULL dereference when flushing gate_vma with VIVT cachesWill Deacon
The vivt_flush_cache_{range,page} functions check that the mm_struct of the VMA being flushed has been active on the current CPU before performing the cache maintenance. The gate_vma has a NULL mm_struct pointer and, as such, will cause a kernel fault if we try to flush it with the above operations. This happens during ELF core dumps, which include the gate_vma as it may be useful for debugging purposes. This patch adds checks to the VIVT cache flushing functions so that VMAs with a NULL mm_struct are flushed unconditionally (the vectors page may be dirty if we use it to store the current TLS pointer).

2012-07-31ARM: Fix undefined instruction exception handlingRussell King
While trying to get a v3.5 kernel booted on the cubox, I noticed that VFP does not work correctly with VFP bounce handling. This is because of the confusion over 16-bit vs 32-bit instructions, and where PC is supposed to point to. The rule is that FP handlers are entered with regs->ARM_pc pointing at the _next_ instruction to be executed. However, if the exception is not handled, regs->ARM_pc points at the faulting instruction. This is easy for ARM mode, because we know that the next instruction and previous instructions are separated by four bytes. This is not true of Thumb2 though. Since all FP instructions are 32-bit in Thumb2, it makes things easy. We just need to select the appropriate adjustment. Do this by moving the adjustment out of do_undefinstr() into the assembly code, as only the assembly code knows whether it's dealing with a 32-bit or 16-bit instruction.

2012-07-31ARM: 7480/1: only call smp_send_stop() on SMPJavier Martinez Canillas
On reboot or poweroff (machine_shutdown()) a call to smp_send_stop() is made (to stop the others CPU's) when CONFIG_SMP=y. arch/arm/kernel/process.c: void machine_shutdown(void) { #ifdef CONFIG_SMP smp_send_stop(); #endif } smp_send_stop() calls the function pointer smp_cross_call(), which is set on the smp_init_cpus() function for OMAP processors. arch/arm/mach-omap2/omap-smp.c: void __init smp_init_cpus(void) { ... set_smp_cross_call(gic_raise_softirq); ... } But the ARM setup_arch() function only calls smp_init_cpus() if CONFIG_SMP=y && is_smp(). arm/kernel/setup.c: void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p) { ... #ifdef CONFIG_SMP if (is_smp()) smp_init_cpus(); #endif ... } Newer OMAP CPU's are SMP machines so omap2plus_defconfig sets CONFIG_SMP=y. Unfortunately on an OMAP UP machine is_smp() returns false and smp_init_cpus() is never called and the smp_cross_call() function remains NULL. If the machine is rebooted or powered off, smp_send_stop() will be called (since CONFIG_SMP=y) leading to the following error: [ 42.815551] Restarting system.

2012-07-31ARM: 7477/1: vfp: Always save VFP state in vfp_pm_suspend on UPColin Cross
vfp_pm_suspend should save the VFP state in suspend after any lazy context switch. If it only saves when the VFP is enabled, the state can get lost when, on a UP system: Thread 1 uses the VFP Context switch occurs to thread 2, VFP is disabled but the VFP context is not saved Thread 2 initiates suspend vfp_pm_suspend is called with the VFP disabled, and the unsaved VFP context of Thread 1 in the registers Modify vfp_pm_suspend to save the VFP context whenever vfp_current_hw_state is not NULL. Includes a fix from Ido Yariv <ido@wizery.com>, who pointed out that on SMP systems, the state pointer can be pointing to a freed task struct if a task exited on another cpu, fixed by using #ifndef CONFIG_SMP in the new if clause.

2012-07-31ARM: 7467/1: mutex: use generic xchg-based implementation for ARMv6+Will Deacon
The open-coded mutex implementation for ARMv6+ cores suffers from a severe lack of barriers, so in the uncontended case we don't actually protect any accesses performed during the critical section. Furthermore, the code is largely a duplication of the ARMv6+ atomic_dec code but optimised to remove a branch instruction, as the mutex fastpath was previously inlined. Now that this is executed out-of-line, we can reuse the atomic access code for the locking (in fact, we use the xchg code as this produces shorter critical sections). This patch uses the generic xchg based implementation for mutexes on ARMv6+, which introduces barriers to the lock/unlock operations and also has the benefit of removing a fair amount of inline assembly code.

2012-07-31ALSA: hda - Fix mute-LED GPIO initialization for IDT codecsTakashi Iwai
The IDT codecs initializes the GPIO setup for mute LEDs via snd_hda_sync_vmaster_hook(). This works in most cases except for the very first call, which is called before PCM and control creations. Thus before Master switch is set manually via alsactl, the mute LED may show the wrong state, depending on the polarity. Now it's fixed by calling the LED-status update function manually when no vmaster is set yet. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [v3.4+] Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not show any performance difference by removing it. So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active. This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large numbers of updates together. Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a measurable effect.

Also we add a freeze protection to ext4_evict_inode() so that iput() of unlinked inode cannot modify a frozen filesystem (we cannot easily instrument ext4_journal_start() / ext4_journal_stop() with freeze protection because we are missing the superblock pointer in ext4_journal_stop() in nojournal mode).

2012-07-31fs: Protect write paths by sb_start_write - sb_end_writeJan Kara
There are several entry points which dirty pages in a filesystem. mmap (handled by block_page_mkwrite()), buffered write (handled by __generic_file_aio_write()), splice write (generic_file_splice_write), truncate, and fallocate (these can dirty last partial page - handled inside each filesystem separately). Protect these places with sb_start_write() and sb_end_write(). ->page_mkwrite() calls are particularly complex since they are called with mmap_sem held and thus we cannot use standard sb_start_write() due to lock ordering constraints. We solve the problem by using a special freeze protection sb_start_pagefault() which ranks below mmap_sem.

2012-07-31fs: Skip atime update on frozen filesystemJan Kara
It is unexpected to block reading of frozen filesystem because of atime update. Also handling blocking on frozen filesystem because of atime update would make locking more complex than it already is. So just skip atime update when filesystem is frozen like we skip it when filesystem is remounted read-only.

2012-07-31fs: Add freezing handling to mnt_want_write() / mnt_drop_write()Jan Kara
Most of places where we want freeze protection coincides with the places where we also have remount-ro protection. So make mnt_want_write() and mnt_drop_write() (and their _file alternative) prevent freezing as well. For the few cases that are really interested only in remount-ro protection provide new function variants.

2012-07-31fs: Improve filesystem freezing handlingJan Kara
vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field. [AV: microoptimize sb_start_write(); we want it fast in normal case] BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897421 Tested-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com> Tested-by: Peter M.

Commit b38c77d82e4 moved the MTMSR_EERI macro from the KVM code to generic ppc_asm.h code. However, while adding it in the headers for the ppc32 case, it missed out to remove the former definition in the KVM code.
